Were I On Speaking Terms w/ My Feet ... I'd Still Say This Prayer

________________________________________________________________________________________________


R. I. P.
born: 3/2/31
died: 5/14/18
Almighty God,
As we sail with pure aerobic grace
and striped orthotic feet
past the blind portals
 of our fellow citizens,
past their chuck roast lives,
their implacable inertia
...
To achieve the White Moment
of slipping through the Wall
...
Lord, we beseech thee,
as we sail past this  
cold-lard desolation,
to be big about it.

The Jogger's Prayer 
(1978)
